Take a look at "man rc.shutdown" I don't know if it's exactly what you want, but there may be another way: Write a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d that responds to the "start" and "stop" parameters. In the "stop" section you can output "ipfw list" to a file. Then in the "start" section you can read that file and run each line, essentially unmodified, agains ipfw. good luck! lane _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
